non refunable tax credit

[RepetePeter]

I am filing as a deemed non resident. I recieve CPP and OAS and am below both the $15000 basic deduction and claim the age deduction. My taxes are paid at the source and both gross and net are in my return, yet it seems I will not receive a refund. Should'nt I receive my taxes back?

CPP and OAS are subject to Part XIII tax. Part XIII tax is not refundable, unless you are Electing under Section 216 (rental income or timber royalties), or Electing under section 217 (certain Canadian pension income).
